    Could I use watercolor paper? For what you’re doing in your first step that is?

    Yes you can use watercolor paper and the ink will move better. I chose a thinner paper because I like it to lay flat when I glue it down. Watercolor paper will lay flat, but is just thicker with edges that are a bit more visible. Thanks so much for your comments and for watching! ❤️
